The Heidi Chronicles
By Wendy Wasserstein, starring Kaitlin Hopkins, Martha Plimpton and
Grant Shaud. This Pulitzer Prize winning play is the tale of a
baby-boomer’s long, hard road from 60’s confusion to 1990’s
self-assured woman…or so she hopes. In honor of Wendy Wasserstein
who passed away earlier this year. The Heidi Chronicles won a
Pulitzer Prize as well as a Tony Award, which put the author on the
map and arguably made her the most prominent female playwright in
America. She was embraced as the voice of a generation of women
caught between their base needs for motherhood and nurturing and
their equally important needs for an intellectual purpose in their
lives.
